US Immigration from Philippines

Hello,

It seems like my spouse's visa has been approved based on the screen shot below:

I have a few questions:

1. For those who went through the 221(g) process - did you receive all the additional documents you submitted back along with the stamped passport? I'm asking because we'll need some of these documents (e.g. CENOMAR, NBI Clearance) for the GCP Seminar
2. How long did it take for you to receive your passport back? My spouse is Manila-based

Thanks!!

For those who have Global Entry , CBP has released a new mobile app that would allow you to just take a selfie and skip the kiosks all together.

I am at the tail end of the K-1 visa process. I have created a DS-134 for my fianc to submit at the interview with a letter of explanation. We will see how that goes.

i am a disabled veteran. I get monthly disability checks from the VA, and that money is non-taxable. I also receive SSI, and at tax time, my AGI is below taxable levels. So the IRS refuses to accept a tax return from me. So I have no tax transcripts for the last 5 years.

I wrote all this in a letter of explanation to accompany the DS-134, along with benefit letters from the VA and the SSA. I sent letters from the banks detailing my savings and the deposits into those accounts. I hope that will suffice for the K-1. My gross income is well above the required level for sponsorship.

My question comes because the AOS seems to be much stricter on the income requirements and I am just wondering if you folks have suggestions on the paperwork I should start gathering.

i am 62 years old and worked and paid taxes for over 45 years, just not in the last 5 years.

Thank you for your time.

My wife lived in Japan for a few years and we just received its police clearance in the Philippines. Do we (for those that experienced the same thing) open up the police clearance and scan it, or do we scan the envelope and upload it to NVC?

We're scared opening up the clearance will invalidate it and having to get another clearance will either take a long time or not possible at all.

I am filing DS-160 for my fianc . She has 2 children that will accompany her. I know I have to file a separate DS-160 and pay fees, for each one. K2 for the children.

Do I need to make separate interview appointments for each person, or can the children go to my fianc s interview with her?
